5th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 1m 0f 113y Class 1 |
9st 8lb |
Campaigned mostly on good/firmer ground; rallied gamely for Listed honours at Goodwood (1m2f) most recently and, assuming another gritty display is on the way, should remain competitive; top on his peak figure, achieved when defying top weight in last year's Cambridgeshire (1m1f). |

1st 3 (1) |
22nd May 2026 Soft 1m 1f 197y Class 1 |
9st 3lb |
Defied top weight in the 2025 Cambridgeshire (1m1f, good to firm) and holds a leading chance provided that smart handicap form is reproduced; hasn't transferred it back to Group level this term but he's respected on ratings and is a similar type to last year's winner of this race (for same connections). |

16th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 1m 1f 212y Class 1 |
9st 5lb |
Had a very productive spell at Meydan earlier in the year, winning two handicaps before progressing again when second to Quddwah in Group 2 Singspiel and fifth to Ombudsman in Group 1 Dubai Turf (both 1m1f, good); those efforts suggest he can make his presence felt in Listed races back in Britain but this is a particularly strong one. |

16th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 1m 1f 212y Class 1 |
9st 5lb |
Did well initially in his career, including when beating three rivals in the 2024 Brigadier Gerard at Sandown (1m2f, soft); 0-9 since, albeit twice placed at the highest level; pulled too hard when beaten about 6l into sixth of 12 on return in a Group 3 at the Curragh (1m2f, soft) in April; never featured at Chester in a Group 2 on good since; good to firm ground is a worry. |

5th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 1m 2f 17y Class 2 |
9st 9lb |
Has run respectably on soft; hooded on last two starts, with a back-to-form second of six when stepped up to 1m2f for C&D handicap (good) on 2026 reappearance; raised 5lb since and probably not straightforward but that was a promising effort here from out the back (ran on well with too much to do) and he has to be in serious calculations. |
7/2 |
|
2nd 1 (7) |
28th Apr 2026 Good To Firm 1m 2f 17y Class 2 |
9st 11lb |
Made it three wins from his first four starts when scoring on handicap debut at Hamilton (8.3f, good) last July; his progress stalled in two Listed races subsequently but this lightly raced 4yo has been gelded since and the return to better ground could be a positive, along with the step up in trip; retains potential for a top trainer who won this in 2018 and 2019; respected. |

18th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 1m 1f 212y Class 1 |
9st 2lb |
Won on debut at Newmarket (1m, good to firm) last August before Listed fourth at Haydock (1m, good), and he rallied for close third in the Group 3 Autumn Stakes at Newmarket (1m, good to firm) last October when last seen; he's the only one of these who hasn't run this year and it's a tough assignment on his comeback, but his latest form reads well and he has potential at 1m2f. |
25/1 |

11th Oct 2025 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 1 |
9st 3lb |
Has shown fairly useful form in winning on the July course here and finishing fourth in Haydock Listed contest, both over 1m; however, needs improvement on bare ratings in this field. |
